The nose is rich starting with a mix of lime zest on top of coconut macaroon and old oak then dark chocolate covered peanut brittle followed by fruits of orange sherbet, apple pie filling and maraschino cherries that transitions to spearmint, cloves, vintage leather and polished mahogany with medium ethanol burn. The taste is a medium mouthfeel starting with a mix of lime zest on top of coconut macaroon and old oak then a high drying, bitter and chalky spice overwhelms the flavors before eventually fading to dark chocolate covered caramel peanut clusters followed by fruits of orange sherbet, apple lollipop and maraschino cherries that transitions to spearmint, cloves, vintage leather and moderate ashy oak with medium ethanol burn. The finish is medium length with dark chocolate covered peanut clusters, Granny Smith apple peel, sour cherries, spearmint, cloves and moderate ashy oak. The nose was very promising with some bold traditional bourbon flavors, citrus and old oak, but the taste betrayed me with that high drying bitter chalkiness that overpowers all the other flavors until it finally fades to let them start to emerge. At the cost of around $100, I’d pass as there are plenty of other options that are far better and cost less than this one.
